Abstract: A system is adapted for guided steering of at least one set of rear wheels of a semi-trailer or trailer of a cargo vehicle which comprises said semi-trailer or trailer and a pulling vehicle or a tractor. The system comprises bearing means wherein the rear wheels are journalled turnable with respect to the chassis of the semi-trailer so that the rear wheels may turn from a neutral position to one or the other side for generating steering of the vehicle in one direction with respect to said neutral position. The system further comprises power generating means to act on the rear wheels and by activation generate said turnings of the rear wheels to one or the other side, activating means mounted in the driver's cabin of the vehicle and adapted to be operated by the driver of the vehicle for activation of the power generating means for generating a steering of the rear wheels independently of the steering of the pulling vehicle or tractor as well as locking means adapted to be operated from the driver's cabin of the vehicle, in a first position for generating locking of the rear wheels in said neutral position, and being switchable from the first position to a second position, in which the rear wheels are released and brought to turn by activation of the activation means. Furthermore, the system comprises blocking means comprising speed detecting means or being adapted to cooperate with a speed detector of the vehicle for detection of the speed of the vehicle and for determination of whether or not the speed of the vehicle is higher or lower than a preset speed limit, said blocking means cooperating with the locking means and being adapted to generate blocking of the locking means in said first position, when the speed detected by the blocking means is higher than said speed limit, and to release the locking means from said blocking when the speed detected by the blocking means is lower than said speed limit.

Abstract: Failures in a fault-tolerant computer system which includes two or more input/output processors connected to a data communication system are detected by monitoring data communication. The computer system is able to detect failures associated with a primary input/output processor, as well as with a standby input/output processors, and is also able to discriminate between failures of the input/output processors and communication failures in the data communication network itself. In addition to using heartbeat-like transmissions, various other categories of data communication are also used to detect failures. The system is able to detect failures when the input/output processors are on a common network segment, allowing the processors to monitor identical data traffic, as well as when the processors are on different segments where, as a result of filtering behavior of network elements such as active hubs, the processors may not be able to monitor identical data traffic.

Abstract: An improved chemical vapor deposition method is disclosed that increases the uniformity of silicon carbide epitaxial layers and that is particularly useful for obtaining thicker epitaxial layers. The method comprises heating a reactor to a temperature at which silicon carbide source gases will form an epitaxial layer of silicon carbide on a substrate in the reactor; and then directing a flow of source and carrier gases through the heated reactor to form an epitaxial layer of silicon carbide on the substrate with the carrier gases comprising a blend of hydrogen and a second gas in which the second gas has a thermal conductivity that is less than the thermal conductivity of hydrogen so that the source gases deplete less as they pass through the reactor than they would if hydrogen is used as the sole carrier gas.
